Location: Outside of S.B Williams Hall

The children would be getting ready to go to bed now. Meaning they would be easy to take as they wouldn't be expecting an attack. They'd be vulnerable. She directed her guards to the secret opening. Clearance was a must, but with a team of technicians, they'd be able to enter without identification or being detected.

Her group was armed and well prepared. Syringes and guns loaded with sedatives to knock the unsuspecting supers and anyone else who got into their way.

"Soon daddy." she said to herself. "The supers are going to pay."

The entrance then opened and the power was shut off. This would be the only working exit, so anyone who tried to escape had no choice and would be captured.

Location: Hallway

She knew Hiro hadn't meant it, but his words hurt. Right now, she just wanted to be alone before going back to face him. Unfortunately for her, Wilbur didn't understand her need to be alone right now. But maybe she could use a little bit of company. Wilbur may not have been her first choice, but he wasn't her last choice either.

"You wanna talk?" Wilbur asked and it was in a more sincere and sensitive manner. Something that she hadn't heard from him yet. Guess she shouldn't have underestimated that he could actually be sensitive.

"Not really." Violet shook her head. What was there to say? Words were forming in her mind, but then she shook them away and was left with nothing. Like a blank slate.

"You know he didn't mean that."

"But he also knew how we feel about being normal." she gritted her teeth so she wouldn't yell.

They haven't been here that long and there was still a lot they didn't know about each other. Today was a first they'd seen Hiro act irrationally. Something they didn't expect from someone like him. Like all their powers, their emotions were just as unpredictable.

"Don't let one little argument ruin your relationship with him."

That was when Violet turned around and gave him a cold stare. For the first time, he was actually afraid of her.

"That wasn't little. He could've shut up, but he had to go and make it personal. He went there Wilbur."

"And he probably regrets it." he told her. "Don't you think you owe him another chance. It might've been because he was angry at you, but he was referring to all of us."

"Are you saying it's my fault he lashed out at every single super?!" she questioned offended.

"No. I mean, in a sense." Wilbur shook his head, he probably wasn't the best with words at the moment. He could usually smooth talk his way out of trouble, but Violet wasn't the easiest to persuade. "Okay, what I'm saying is, he's mad cause you saved him. Not everyone is grateful for being saved. You of all people should know that?"

"What do you mean I should know?"

"About seventeen years ago? The whole reason the superhero relocation program?"

"Right. My father saved someone who didn't want to be saved." Violet slowly nodded. "But Hiro isn't that guy. My father didn't know the guy, Hiro's my..."

"Boyfriend?" Wilbur finished for her.

"I'm not sure what we are right now." she admitted.

"That's why you gotta talk to him."

"I don't think I'm the only one who needs to talk." she crossed her arms, staring the boy down. "You seemed pretty pissed at his comment too."

"He's my roommate. We'll get over it. After all, you know the famous Robinson family motto."

"With you, it's hard to tell if it's the famous Keep Moving Forward or That is an excellent question." she laughed.

Wilbur frowned. "At least you got your sense of humour back." he rolled his eyes, but was glad she was beginning to lighten up. Hopefully Penny was getting through to Hiro too and doing a better job than he was.

"Let's just call it a night, Purple. I'm sure things will be better in the morning."

"I'll hold you to your word, Cowlick." she smirked.

Lights were beginning to flicker before completely blacking out. Leaving the two teens in darkness. Wilbur threw a small spark towards the light above them, finding Violet was as confused as he was. They still had time before lights out and they usually dimmed the lights before turning them off completely an hour later.

"This isn't some short circuit joke from you is it?"

Wilbur would've made a comment of how he was innocent, but he could tell by her tone that she was worried and would've preferred if it was him playing a joke. He wished that too as a cold feeling crawled up his spine. Something wasn't right.

"If I wanted to cut off all this power, I'd have to be near the generator." he said instead.

Doors were being locked and the students on the other side were struggling to getting them unlocked, leaving them trapped.

"So they turn off the power, but leave the doors locked?" Violet questioned.

"That scratches out a drill." Wilbur said.

Violet went to the closest door and tried opening it. "Locked." she turned to Wilbur.

"Hold on." he told her and moved towards the handle. "The whole place is powered by electricity. While I might not be able to start up the whole system, I could maybe..." he grabbed the handle sending a small jolt of electricity and they heard the click indicating the door had been opened.

Several kids came out. Most likely having their own party before lights out. Whatever fun they were having was gone now. Now, they were scared and worried.

"Do you know what's going on?" one of them asked.

"We expect it's a malfunction or something. But try to find the closest exit or guard. And help the others if you can." Violet instructed.

The group nodded and headed back from where Wilbur and Violet had just been.

"You can't open every door." she turned to him.

"I can try. And I'm not the only one here whose electrokinetic." he stated. "Someone will pick up on the idea."

He had a point. They were trained and it was super 101 to use your abilities when you can. Hopefully their powers could help.

"Fine. But let's try and help out who we can." she said.

"But what about Penny and Hiro?

"We'll still look for them, but we can't just walk around and do nothing."

She was more a hero than he was and he couldn't blame her for her superhero instincts kicking in. Especially now. Even he felt something was off and he had never been on the field. Besides trusting her as a friend, he trusted her as a super.

"You're the expert. Lead the way."

Violet rolled her eyes. "This is serious."

"Don't think I don't know that." he told her. "But what's wrong with a little sense of hu-"

"Shush!" she interrupted.

"What?" he looked at her annoyed.

Violet groaned, pulling him behind the wall with her.

"What's wrong with you?" he questioned.

"Would you keep quiet." she whispered loudly.

Before he could comment, she was looking down the hall. Curious, he looked over and saw a group of guards with a few of the other kids. The weird thing about these guards were that they weren't like the ones that usually patrolled the halls. The kids with them appeared unconscious.

Several left and the others went to the next room, they somehow unlocked the door, opening it and leaving a gap, throwing something in there and quickly shutting it.

"Now I know this is definitely not a drill and that things got a whole lot more serious." Wilbur whispered.

Without giving much thought he went out into the open.

"What are you doing?!" Violet whispered yelled.

He threw an electric ball towards the guards and knocked them out. "Strike!" he called out.

Violet walked up to him, a frown on her face. "You didn't take them all out. Obviously there'll be more on their way when they realise part of their team isn't responding."

Of course she'd ruin his victory. "Well I wasn't going to sit here and do nothing. You're suppose to be the hero. You've been on the field."

"And being on the field has taught me to analyse your situation, not run into the battle blind."

"Oh come on. I made a split second decision. That comes as part of the job."

"Oh sorry. I didn't realise you were the field expert." Violet said sarcastically. "Split second decisions are only when you don't have time to think. This situation didn't call for that."

"I must've missed that lesson." Wilbur rolled his eyes.

"More like slept through it." Violet mumbled and moved towards the guards. Seeing as they were knocked out by a jolt of electricity, they'd be out for a while.

"Any idea why they're here and kidnapping students?" Wilbur asked, appearing behind her.

"I don't know. But we better get everyone out."

"Electricity is out. We can't pull an alarm."

That's when Violet gave him a look that he was being blind to the obvious. "Oh no, if only we had someone who had electrical powers."

She was impossible. Wilbur rolled his eyes. "I get you. But I can't reach the whole system."

"Just use as much as you can."

Obviously, being young, their powers had limitations. But Wilbur should be powerful enough to at least power up the whole floor without pushing himself too much. Wilbur let out a sigh and placed his hand onto the wall and channelled as much energy as he could to light up the hallway.

The lights began to flicker, before resting on a dim setting. It wasn't bright, but it illuminated the room enough to see more clearly. Hiro and Penny had thought the same, while searching for their friends. They were trying to open as many doors as they could. Penny was currently using her powers to keep some young children distracted from their fears while Hiro tried forcing the door open with his telekinesis.

"Everything is going to be okay." Penny said in a calm voice. She was occupying the kids with an illusion of some children's cartoon.

(I can't think of anything, so go crazy and imagine something here. Kid show of course)

"See, it's all fine." Penny smiled when she saw the children ease and calm down a tad. She then turned to Hiro, seeing he was still working on getting the fire exit unlocked. "If it's too much for you, we understand." Penny said.

"I can do it." He said a little annoyed. He may not have had the advantage that the others had of knowing about their powers since they were born, but he wasn't as useless as they were. He was determined to prove them wrong.

Penny thought he was being stupid with this whole proving them wrong thing. The redhead rolled her eyes at his actions. Hiro may be a good guy and was gifted with super smarts, but his stubbornness was some piece of work. It did eventually get the door unlocked and they ushered the kids to go down and be careful.

"Think they'll manage once they get down? The door is most likely locked." Hiro looked over to Penny and saw she looked pretty annoyed. "What?" He blinked.

"You know what?" She responded. "If you wanna be a hero, stop trying so hard to prove you are one." She told him. "Don't be a hero because you are one, be a hero because people need one. And they'll be okay. One of them has super strength and could knock the door down."

"That would've helped open the door faster!" Hiro complained.

"Yeah, it would have, but someone was convinced they could do it on their own." Penny said, walking past him and Hiro could see he probably deserved that.

During his argument with Violet, he knew that in class she was only trying to save him. Clearly, Penny was looking out for him too. While the door wasn't as bad as simulator scenarios, it would've still been better and smarter to use super strength.

Usually the whole building was protected from their powers, but with the power done, the technologies weren't working as well. The only reason why some people hadn't come out were due to either their powers being unable to perform the task or their powers were being blocked due to their strong emotions of fear.

Hopefully Wilbur and Violet were fine. Other than helping out whoever they could, Penny and Hiro had began searching for them.

The two were coming round a corner when they heard voices. Violet quickly pulled Wilbur close to her and made both of them disappear. She certainly had been practicing. They did become visible after a few seconds and whoever they were hiding from had seen them.

"Nice to see you two are getting close." A familiar female voice teased.

At that, Violet's eyes widened and she pushed the boy away. "It's not what you think. I panicked and thought you might've been the guards we saw earlier."

"Aww, come on, Vi. Girl's can't keep their hands off me. And you appear to be no exception." Wilbur smirked.

"Watch it, cowlick." She glared at him. "Or you'll find yourself floating around in one of my forcefields." She threatened.

Penny shook her head in amusement. She was use to seeing her friends argue like that. At least this amusing argument was adding light on their current situation.

"What do you mean guards?" Hiro questioned. He may not be thrilled seeing someone he considered his best friend being with ...whatever kind of relationship he and Violet had at the moment together like how they found them. But there were more important matters at hand.

"Some guys came in and took a few kids away. We've been trying to help as many as we can get out before they get captured." Wilbur answered, now being serious.

"Most likely they put the power out or are working for whoever did." Violet added.

"I thought this place was secured. No threat could find us. That's why we're all here. To be safe." Penny said.

"I guess someone let the location slip." Violet shrugged.

"And whoever did just gave access to a whole heap of supers whose powers aren't fully manifested." Wilbur added.

"And they're most likely the one that's been kidnapping supers. But who has a vendetta against supers?" Hiro questioned.

None of them knew. Anyone could've had a bad experience with supers and would blame all of them. The world was a big place and was full of people.

Location: Outside S.B Williams Hall

"Some of the kids got out and we got a few soldiers out cold." The voice on her speaker said.

The woman gritted her teeth and turned to one of her men. "When you knocked out all the power, did you make sure to keep the power lock on?" She asked, her voice showing her frustration.

The man's eyes widened and checked his screen. Seeing the mistake he quickly fixed it and looked at her sheepishly.

She was surrounded by incompetent idiots. Hopefully their little mistake didn't make them lose the big prize.

Location: Hallway

They still didn't have an answer to the mystery, but that wasn't their main concern now. Right now, they couldn't get the doors open. Hiro's telekinesis, Wilbur's electrokinesis and Violet's force fields all did nothing to bust the door open.

Even the kids inside powers weren't helping.

"The power lock must be back on." Penny pointed out.

"Meaning our powers are functional but useless." Violet stated.

"We can't just leave them here." Wilbur said. "Not with supernappers roaming the halls."

"What can we do? Our powers won't so much as dent these doors if they're super proof." Hiro said.

Even with his super brain, he couldn't come up with an idea. The enemy had the upper hand. Word would've gotten out to the NSA, but who knew when or if they'd even arrive? Would they even stand a chance?

"Hey." Penny said, gaining their attention. "Has anyone seen Violet?" she asked, bringing to notice that a member of their group was missing.

"I doubt she's invisible at the moment." Wilbur stated.

"Who cares if she's invisible or not, we have to find her." Hiro said, growing a little worried. For all they knew, she could've been captured. Of all times she had to disappear, it had to be now. When they're currently under attack.

AN: Cliffy! What happen to Violet? Only I know. I'll try and upload the next chapter as soon as I can, so I don't leave you in suspense for too long. But thanks for accepting that I take my time with this story.
